Question about data modeling

I could like to create a new column to determine that is our target data or not

if that is our target data, the data showing in the field will be...

"U" or "N" + ABCDEF + 01/02/03/04

which is 7 letter + 2 digit of number

 

Example as below

UHKGDEL01

NAMSLHR02

 

so, could anyone teach me how to build a formula in power BI to determine this is our target or not?
if(left(field name,1)= OR("N", "U"), etc.......

something like that?
Thank you.

@Ericwhv you mean like this? (This is a calculated column):

 

Check For Target = 
IF(
    LEFT('Table'[Input], 1) IN {"U", "N"}
        && RIGHT('Table'[Input], 2) IN {"01", "02", "03", "04"},
    TRUE,
    FALSE
)
